Is there romance in this? Romance that is part of the main plot or relevant to the plot .. not some afterthought or silly add on or forced in the end ;-p

Can't believe this drama does not have cheating as a tag. It's 2024 and I can't believe that I have to write it.…

OH BOY!!!
This was an ALL OUT trigger event for you.
Hope you found some 100% model behaviour, ideal, flawless, humans as characters in a drama that teaches the audience right and wrong, with a moral about how to live ;-p
A million times better than Something In The Rain, which went in such stupid direction during 2nd half! 🤦🏻♀️Not…

LOL Hi there!!
So lovely to see you here. No idea why I stopped by OSN after 4 years LOL
It was MY FIRST Kdrama. I learnt about what KDrama was from a friend during Covid Lockdown days :-p
And that's how I survived those crazy years. Kept me sane and entertained. While people drank an LOT of WINE / BEER .. I sucked up Kdrama - ha ha ha ha
Anyway I KNOW for SURE .. that if my friend, who knows me well, had NOT started me with OSN .. I wouldn't have gotten into Kdrama.
I was HOOKED from the first few frames of the two friends walking up the street with their dinner .. The phone call that came just as they sat down to eat - set the tone.
I am also on board with you about SITR .. It started off delightfully .. BUT FL turning 'wimpy-lame' being shown to have no agency .. the constant battering of her psyche .. just dragged it down a LOT.
It happens IRL too .. But I wasn't interested in watching a character like this (I cant identify with personalities like that). A drippy-drama .. I FFWDed chunks just to move to the end and see how it ended.
That's the difference between the two FLs .. one was STRONG and had agency .. the other was shown at the mercy of the office idiots and the world in general .. and she was about to cry at the drop of a hat.
"Ki Seok behavior felt way overboard and not totally realistic."I once knew a guy who behaved more or less like…
@MikeG I also saw it as a 'misunderstanding' followed up by a 'cooling off' period until that got sorted out.
It happens IRL.
The back and forth fights; the make up and breakup and makeup is so real life.
That's the MAIN reason I loved the DRAMA .. it was slice of life drama for me.
With real adults and the ups and downs that can happen.
Some people, like the SML, can go psycho and upset (but he was redeemed in the end) and some people (the FL) try to gently let down or get closure in the relationship in the best possible way. She was decent enough to take the time to do that.
Anyway OUR own experiences and life scripts have given us our unique lenses through which we view life and human actions, and interpret them using our own rubric ..
It's interesting to read the various reactions the show had .
AMAZING that the show STILL maintained a 8.3 rating ;-p

That would soothe you after this ordeal :-D
I just checked your watchlist.
We HAVE so much LIKES in common.
Amazing .. especially those which other have found intolerable.
If you are OK : I'll make a recommendation that might JUST start up your Cdrama Journey.
(I am new to Cdrama (compared to Kdrama for 3 years .. this is just 9 months old) but I have seen some terrific dramas there).
SO here goes:
On Viki now - 21 delicious nutrient filled episodes that wrapped recently
"Will Love In Spring" (WLIS)
Or you could try :
Fake it Till you Make it
Or you could try :
Lighter and Princess
Lemme know ;-p

It explored SO MANY issues in a mature way.
